Barmer: An unique wedding procession in Barmer, on Monday, grabbed everyone's eyeballs. The wedding procession departed on 51 tractors, one of which was driven by the groom itself. The groom's father said, "My wedding procession departed on one tractor, so I got 51 of them for my son".

Prakash Choudhary the bridegroom, a native of Gudamalani village, got married to Mamata, a native of Roli village. On Monday morning, the procession departed from groom's house heading to Roli village, located 51 kilometres away. There were more than 200 'Baratis' on the 51 tractors.

The 'Baratis' said that we do agriculture by tractors, so why cannot we take a procession on it?' (with ANI inputs)
